Sparta Rotterdam team news
Mike Eerdhuijzen and Tobias Lauritsen both had to come off in the second leg of Sparta Rotterdam’s play-off semi-final against Utrecht with injury issues and they are now doubts for the first leg, though haven’t been completely ruled out. It may be a case of them missing this first leg in order to make the second, with Adil Auassar sure to step in at centre-back to replace Eerdhuijzen. Lauritsen’s is a lot harder to call, with the Norwegian starting all but one of Sparta’s 38 games across all competitions this season and barely coming off. Aside from two inexperienced options, Koki Saito could move central if Lauritsen isn’t back in time.
FC Twente team news
Max Bruns remains out for FC Twente having missed the last eight matches due to an ankle injury, though it wasn’t an absence that caused too much change to the starting XI. Twente came through their semi-finals against Heerenveen unscathed and may go unchanged from the XI that won the second leg 4-0.
